if you are not a cat fan or not really care bout a cat, then u might not relate to the story. the started with a librarian in a bleak small town of Spencer found a kitten in a book return bin one freezing morning. a whole new future for the cat revel onwards. from one misery librarian to another took care of Dewey Readmore Books until the whole town seemed to adopt him. you see, cat is a creature of personality...they dont care a thing bout how the world spins, what they know is the world spin around them. unlike dogs, they dont obey you..but you obey them, unwillingly. as if cats have magic spell they inherit since the Pharaoh-worshipping-days. thats what dewey did to a small town facing uncertain future during the horrible ecomic downturn then.
this book recalls all the antics of dewey.. his first experience outdoor, first trip to the vet, a taste of fame, a possession of a library. this book evokes the warm n fuzzy feeling you get when you remember your first pet. the heartbroken moment when your first pet died. it's everything you may experience in bringing up a pet (wat...'bringing up' only for children ke?). luckily the author who is the librarian has quite a sense of humour so once in a while you may smile amidst the tears rolling down your gebu cheeks.
nuff said...give it a try. you might understand how cat lovers feel...better yet, you might think there is a human after all inside a cat (reincarnation, anybody?).
